Abstract: The invention comprises a process for forming a high contrast photographic image including the steps of imagaewise exposing a silver halide photographic element containing a hydrazine compound which functions as a nucleating agent, wherein the element is free of incorporated amine boosters. The exposed element is developed with a chemically stable aqueous alkaline developing solution that is free of dihydroxybenzene developing agents and has a pH between 9.5 and 11. The developing solution comprises an ascorbic acid developing agent; an auxiliary developing agent; and a combination of an alkali metal carbonate and an alkali metal borate comprising between 0.125 and 0.5 molar concentration of the carbonate and between 0.04 and 0.35 molar concentration of the borate.

Abstract: Solid anti-fogging agents such as 5-nitroindazole which are otherwise poorly soluble in water are converted to readily water soluble compositions that are solids at room temperature when they are first dissolved in water soluble polymers or other organic compounds that have a melting point above room temperature and do not chemically react with the anti-fogging agent. The anti-foggants are preferably dissolved in the polymer or organic compound at or near the compounds' melting point below 175.degree.C.

Abstract: A water soluble alkaline developer composition useful in the development of exposed silver halide photographic material comprised of a developing agent, a sulfite preservative and a small but effective amount of an amino alcohol compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein each R.sub.1 is a C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 alkyl group and R.sub.2 is a moiety having the structure: (R.sub.1 O).sub.x --R.sub.1 OH wherein x is an integer of from 1 to 3, and R.sub.1 is as defined hereinabove.
